FAQs

How do I know if support coordination is included in my plan?

Check your NDIS plan document under the “Capacity Building” budget category. Look for “Support Coordination” as a line item with allocated funding. If you’re unsure, contact the NDIA or ask us to review your plan together.

Can I change my support coordinator if I’m not happy?

Yes, you have the right to change coordinators at any time. Simply notify your current coordinator and the NDIA of your decision. We can help you transition smoothly to ensure continuous support throughout the change.

How often will I meet with my coordinator?

Meeting frequency depends on your individual needs and preferences. Most participants meet monthly initially, then less frequently as they gain confidence. We offer flexible scheduling including face-to-face visits, video calls, and phone support.

What’s the difference between support coordination and plan management?

Support coordination helps you find and connect with service providers and build skills. Plan management handles the financial side, paying invoices and tracking your budget. These are separate services that work well together.

Will my coordinator choose providers for me?

No, your coordinator presents options and information to help you make informed choices. You always have the final decision about which providers to engage. We respect your right to choose services that feel right for you.

How long does support coordination funding last?

Support coordination funding typically lasts for your entire plan period, usually 12 months. The amount allocated depends on your circumstances and the complexity of your needs. We help you use this funding effectively.

Can my family members attend coordination meetings?

Absolutely! We encourage family involvement if you’re comfortable with it. Your supporters can participate in discussions, ask questions, and help with decision-making. Family input often strengthens the coordination process.

What happens when my NDIS plan is about to end?

We help you prepare for your plan review three months before it expires. We gather evidence of outcomes achieved and document any changes in your circumstances. Your coordinator assists with completing review paperwork and attending meetings.

Do I need a diagnosis to access support coordination?

You need to be an NDIS participant to access funded support coordination. NDIS eligibility requires meeting disability criteria, which typically involves medical evidence. Contact us if you need guidance on the access process.

Can support coordinators help with crisis situations?

Standard support coordinators provide general assistance, but complex crisis situations may require specialist support coordination. We can escalate urgent matters and connect you with appropriate crisis services. Your safety and wellbeing are our priority.
